So, what is with OpenSource? It just doesn't make sense
to me. My code is my work, my art. Did Mozart give away his
music (yes, but he sold a fair bit of it as well). Did
Degá paint only for the greater good? (No, but he did that
too.)

What I like about OS is the unstructured organization.
The ability to work on what is interesting, difficult, and
on my whim. It is the democratization of software
development.

I don't like that it pressures me (if not forces) to
release my work gratis. Is that a misconception? In order
to free myself from the rigid confines of tranditional
corporate structure, do I need to deny the value of my work?
